A three-day cycling and camping trip around Bryson City is set for Friday, May 18, through Sunday, May 20, under the guidance of the Western North Carolina Alliance.

The trip starts with an exploration of Burningtown and Cowee valleys in Macon County and an overnight stay at Deep Creek Campground. Saturday night will include an optional waterfall hike, dinner and a trip to the Nantahala Brewing Company.

On Sunday, the group will head out from the campground by bike to the “Road to Nowhere,” an eight-mile road in Bryson City that’s inside the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

You must be able to bring you own bike and camping equipment, though some gear is available if you don’t have any. Cost is $40 for Alliance members and $50 for non-members. This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or 828.258.8737.
